Site Size & Condition: Medium Tuol Neak Ta Trapeang Chrah (អ្នកតាត្រពាំងច្រះ - Pronounced: Ah-nahk Ta T'roh-pahng J'rah!)


An intact reservoir Trapeang Chrah, measuring approximately 70m x 150m and aligned to some 85 degrees is situated immediately east of the village primary school. The corresponding sanctuary would consequently have been just to the west of the school although today vestiges of any ancient temple are limited to a block of laterite in the schoolyard. The school grounds do also contain a small, concrete, neak ta shrine which houses a slightly damaged shiva pedestal and several fragments of carved sandstone.

Neither the date nor the original form of the sanctuary is known.
